1 1 Network Patient Representative (NPR) Program Overview What is the NPR program? s Patient Advisory Committee (PAC) developed the Network Patient Representative (NPR) program to help spread educational information to patients and provide them with additional support by a fellow patient in their dialysis clinic. The Network s NPR program is made up of NPRs from across Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska. Who are NPRs? NPRs are individuals that are on dialysis or have had a kidney transplant. They volunteer at their dialysis clinic working with staff to help improve the patient experience and share patient education. NPRs can also serve as peer mentors to fellow patients by sharing their experiences and providing support and encouragement. NPRs are role models in their clinic because of their positive outlook and their desire to learn as much about their kidney disease and treatment as they can to improve their quality of life. What are the responsibilities of an NPR? It is really up to the NPR how involved they want to get, but at minimum we ask that NPRs do the following: Share educational materials from the Network and their clinic with other patients (such as posting info on a bulletin board) Be available to give support to new and current patients by phone, , or in-person Join the monthly NPR Connection Call the first Tuesday of the month to receive Network updates and to discuss ideas with other NPRs Refer patients with questions or concerns to appropriate clinic staff (avoid giving medical advice) For more information or to file a grievance, please contact the at: 920 Main Street, Suite 801, Kansas City, MO Toll-free Patient Line (800) net12@nw12.esrd.net heartlandkidney.org

2 2 Network Patient Representative (NPR) Program Q&A: 1. How do I apply to become an NPR? Talk to your clinic staff about your interest. Then you need to complete the NPR Interest Form and ask a staff member to fill out the Staff Nomination Form. Both forms should be sent together to the Network either by mail or fax. 2. How will I know if I am approved? You will hear from the Network within 2 weeks and will receive an NPR Starter Kit folder sent to your mailing address. 3. What if my clinic already has an NPR, can we have more than one? Yes, there can be more than one NPR at a clinic, but we advise only one per shift. NPRs at the same clinic can work together to plan activities. 4. What are current NPRs doing to serve at their dialysis clinic? NPRs do all sorts of things at their clinic depending how much time they have. You can get creative but here are some examples: maintaining the patient bulletin board with announcements, education, and recipes working with their social worker to welcome new patients organizing patient social gatherings and/or outings writing articles for the clinic s monthly newsletter talking with patients that are having a difficult time with dialysis helping staff plan fun activities at the clinic sharing ideas with the Network about patient projects and/or resources Are you interested in joining a group of dedicated patients across the Network to help improve the patient experience at your dialysis clinic? Become a Network Patient Representative (NPR) TODAY! For more information or questions, please contact Ellie Vail, NPR Program Coordinator, toll free at ext. 709 or by at evail@nw12.esrd.net.
